Wales Bonner Reveal SS24 Sambas and SL76s

The adidas Samba craze isn’t over yet, as the sneaker continues to do numbers for the Three Stripes. To combat the Samba fatigue, adidas are bringing back different iterations of the Samba, such as the adidas Samba Millennium – a modern take on the Samba that dropped in the 2000s – and Wales Bonner is bringing their signature touch to the model.

Wales Bonner and the adidas Samba are synonymous with each other in the sneaker realm, as Grace Wales Bonner has helped energise the football sneaker and they look to do the same with the Samba Millennium.

Wales Bonner brings football tradition to the sneaker, as the supple cream upper features stitching and ribbing similarly seen on classic adidas Football boots such as the Copa Mundial. The medial and lateral Three Stripes hide blend up against the upper as pebbled brown leather makes up the back half of the sneaker and tongue. Wales Bonner and adidas co-branding is seen on the tongue tag with the Trefoil debossed on the heeltab, and a green liner brings a pop of colour to the sneaker. The midsole is seen in the same creamy hue as the upper, with a gum outsole finishing off the sneaker.

The Wales Bonner x adidas Samba Millennium is set to drop on May 20, 2024, hitting select retailers such as BSTN for $250. Check out the photos above and hit the links below to grab a pair.
